Chipset fan of Epox 9npa ultra

[msi or epox]

Has any1 encountered problems with a loud chipset fan, I was wondering if i should order a copper fan along with this epox board, if it is loud which fan?

 

[MBentz]

It is loud, so I unplugged it weeks ago. Stable on my end...

Mine dint even work when i got it had to RMA it. I wouldnt get an EPOX board to start with.

No problems with the chipset fan on my board, I can barely hear it at all.

Yep! Me too. Fan is deadly quiet IMHO

the fan is very quite on my 9npa too, but i'm not sure it's enough to cool the chip with so few fins and small fan, and it's always burning hot after some time of usage, especially after some gaming, have anybody try to put a Vantec copper iceberq on it? it seems better, but not sure it will fit...

thanks for the input, ill risk it and not purchase a spare.

I just ordered this board and will never even try the fan. I bought a passive Zalman chipset heatsink that'll go on from day 1.
